NT Buff Hunt

I just got home from a great trip to Conways Cattle Station in the NT. A great hunt with good results were had by all of us. Cal Pappas, Omnivourous Bob and my self from Alaska and two other gentlemen from Arizona made up the list of hunters. Cal got a big bull with his 600 Wilkes Double rifle. Bob was on a cull type of hunt with his mighty 4 bore single shot. I had late mail delivery problems with my NT license so I used one of their rifles fom the station, a 375 H&H Weatherby.
I managed to find a good buff bull on the first day that scored 97 3/4cm. A scrub bull and 3 donkeys also fell to this rifle. (I'll try to add pics later)
We did manage to meet 'Pato' and his son Steven at the station one evening too. He brought several of his doubles out to show us! Their picture album of their hunts that they brought was awesome. They've shot a bunch of buffalo!
The last night there I called Ben but he was still in Katherine and I thought he'd be in Darwin so we could meet on our last night in Oz. Bummer.
I'm fresh off the plane and dead tired now so I'll fill in the details later.
